I'm a bit confused. Can a glove, a gauntlet and a mitten all be worn simultanously on one hand?

Also, bug report time: 2 times out of 2, a Chapterhouse transformation affected not the designated worker, but her baby.

And utility spiders can be activated, but bronze centurions can't.

[Deon]

I will check the gloves layers.

It's not a bug, it's more of a situational problem. The baby is "noticed" first, so it will be transformed rather than the worker.

The centurions can be activated just fine; I think it's just not a 100% chance.

[Tirion]

And the clockworks aren't 100% either? 2/0 on a vampire, he stood in the cloud just fine. Not cool...

Wait. If it's an inhaled syndrome, it may not affect a not-breathing vampire.

[Deon]

It's an autosyndrome syndrome, inhaling has nothing to do with it. Is your DFHack running fine? Can you summon rain and snow with Occult Grove?

- Clockworks no longer need to eat or sleep (they still need booze, it's like a fuel).
- Clockworks no longer shatter and lose limbs from punches and hard hits; they now consist of "frame" and "case".
- Clockworks get gem eyes.
- Bloodred/dark/shimmering crystals are removed. Added air/fire/water/earth/aether crystals.
- New building Gem Grinder; grinds gems in gem powder (glazing) and has a chance to produce air/fire/water/earth/aether crystals.
- New building Calcinator.
- Removed war shrine and sacrificial pit. Removed % chance to become something religious reactions.
- Religious reactions now require air/fire/water/earth/aether crystals and have certain outcomes.
- Alchemical lab now brews permanent stat/skill boost potions from elemental gems.
- New building "infirmary" where you can force dwarves to take drugs I mean stat boost potions.

Cant believe that I didnt think of that. ^^ With my low amount of different gems, I can just add this to the quern/millstone.

My first clockwork adventurer had all its limbs severed by a bandit captain with a copper seax. Just saying.

And utility spiders can be activated, but bronze centurions can't.

I've been able to activate centurions, but it always takes at least 2 work orders to get one centurion activated. I thought this was part if the process, each reaction only has some percent chance if working.

Yeah, that's vanilla bronze vs copper values. Try wearing some armor next time .

That's the funny thing, I did. Hide armor, and iron boots iirc. Bastard took all my limbs, then I pushed him to death and retired.

DF forums in a nutshell:

Material durability, bronze weak against copper, metal frames and cases - DUH! UNREALISTIC!
Killing a bandit without any limbs : just okay. move along.


  

Downloading the new update. Will post feedback soon


and BTW. wearing mittens, gloves and gauntlets in the same time seems perfectly fine to me, might be a little uncomfortable though... if living in a wooden cottage with twelve other unrelated people and vampires eating your children among your community ever was comfortable


edit: Can't wait till I buy a new PC so I'll be able to play Genesis properly on worlds larger than pocket, 1GB ram and a single core 2.0 isn't cutting edge anymore :<



edit2: Why are all the races unable to bite? I can just headbutt.

[Deon]

Because biting metal armor, axes and dragons is not a believable thing. It's more likely that a steelclad human would headbutt an iron clad goblin than he would bite him.

[Ragnarock]

And dragons are believable? Aww come on, for !!SCIENCE!! !!
Killing dalesmen with thrown sandy loam is kinda surrealistic as well...

By the way, my clockwork is coughing up blood 

Reworked clockworks work just fine, I'm satisfied.


edit: does losing steam presents any handicaps?

[Deon]

I mean a dwarven baby tearing off a head of a dragon with teeth is a bit weird. Removing biting and nerfing kicks/punches was needed to avoid wrestlers decimating armored armed opponents.

Losing steam presents no handicaps, it's just for looks.

Minor bug, you might want to change the keybinding for the calcinator or automaton factory, their build hotkeys are both alt+b.
